Coefficients of friction, lubricin, and cartilage damage in the anterior cruciate ligament-deficient guinea pig knee

The coefficient of friction (COF) of articular cartilage is thought to increase with osteoarthritis (OA) progression, and this increase may occur due to a decrease in lubricin concentration. The objectives of this study were to measure the COF of guinea pig tibiofemoral joints with different stages...
